When it comes to iPhones and iPods, they never seem to pick the most convenient time for their batteries to run out.
And if you don’t have a charger or computer nearby to plug them into, all you can do is watch helplessly as the battery life indicator drifts down past 20%, down past 10% – only to finally plunge into inky, silent darkness.
The takeaway here: You can never be too prepared. You can never have too many chargers. Especially if you can get one for both home and car for under eight bucks. Which is exactly what you can do with this week’s DOTW.
You get a 12-volt charger, suitable for car, boat, and Gulfstream. You also get the ubiquitous cube-shaped AC charger, a dead ringer for the one that came with your device. And as a bonus, you get an old-school 30-pin to USB cable, like they used to use way back in 2011. Just sub in your own cable or an adapter and you’re completely up-to-date.

Getting up from a comfortable seat, moving to a location, and manually flicking a switch? Man, that is so 20th century.
We live in an age of remotes, of wireless magic, of click-here-and-it-gets-done-there wizardry. What if you could randomly pick a couple of lamps or appliances or tools to set up as remotely-activated devices? What if doing so was not only dead simple, but ridiculously affordable?
Think of the possibilities: Early morning, your alarm clock comes on. You slap it off, as usual – except now, because you went to Connecting Point this week, you can also slap on the coffeemaker – without getting out of bed. By the time you stagger downstairs to the kitchen, steaming hot java awaits.
Paradise. Better still, paradise for less than 13 bucks.

If you’re facing down a foggy Christmas Eve, and don’t happen to have a genetically-modified reindeer handy, this flashlight is the next best thing.
It’s tough. Constructed of aircraft-grade aluminum, with a sure-grip machine-knurled surface.
It’s bright. For a flashlight not much bigger than your thumb, this baby sheds an awful lot of lumens.
It’s handy. Small enough to place in your tackle box, glove compartment, bag, or next to the circuit breaker, without crowding.
It’s cheap. For less than five bucks, it’s one heck of a deal.
It’s seasonal. Wait, bright red, just like Santa’s garb or Rudolph’s nose? Nobody will be sorry to find one in their stocking!

If you’re experiencing a sense of déja vu, it might be because we’ve offered this week’s DOTW before, back in October. It was one of the most popular offers we’ve ever featured. People have been asking ever since if we were going to reprise it.
This week, we are. And it’s a great idea for gift-minded holiday shoppers.
Connect it by hardline using its Ethernet jack, or connect it to your Wi-Fi network. It has a built-in microphone, voice activation, and infrared nightvision. Best of all, you can pick it up – for as long as supplies last – for a mere $39.99. That’s $60 off the regular price!
